It covers legal fees and court costs for various legal proceedings. This includes costs arising from disputes related to the vessel's operation, though it does not cover the damages themselves. The insurance also covers expenses for defending or pursuing claims in disputes involving Charter Parties, Bills of Lading, sale and purchase contracts, and conflicts with shipyards or suppliers, among others. For detailed information, please contact one of our underwriters.
Full policy details, including applicable limits, are available upon request.
